'Detective Sherdil' Trailer Review: An entertaining Diljit Dosanjh teams up with a no-nonsense Diana Penty to solve a murder mystery
Diana Penty stuns in a new avatar — a no-nonsense, razor-sharp detective in Detective Sherdil, opposite the ever-entertaining Diljit Dosanjh. The trailer has just hit the internet and it's everything we didn't know we needed - mystery, comedy, and a whole lot of cat-and-mouse chaos!
And the two are out to solve a murder mystery. The film also stars Boman Irani, Ratna Pathak Shah in crucial roles. Irani plays a business tycoon who has been murdered in broad daylight. This is yet another whodunit after Chhal Kapat, Housefull 5, Criminal Justice 4, and many more titles.
STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD
From punchy one-liners to thrilling twists, Diana and Diljit's Tom-and-Jerry-style chemistry is already a highlight. Both actors take on the roles of detectives, and they look every bit the part. We can't wait to see this dynamic duo solve crimes (and probably create a little mayhem along the way).
Directed by debutant Ravi Chhabria and produced by Ali Abbas Zafar under AAZ Films, Offside Entertainment, and Maurya Entertainment, the film also features an ensemble cast including Boman Irani, Chunky Pandey, Ratna Pathak Shah, Banita Sandhu, and Sumeet Vyas.
Shot in Budapest and streaming on OTT from June 20, 2025, Detective Sherdil is all set to be a rollercoaster of laughs, clues, and complete chaos.
